Erişkin Still Hastalığının Klinik Özellikleri ve Tanısı
Özet
Erişkin Başlangıçlı Still Hastalığı (AOSD), etiyolojisi tam olarak bilinmeyen, nadir rastlanan multisistemik ve inflamatuar bir hastalıktır. Prevalansı 1/100.000’den az olan hastalık, genellikle 15-25 ile 36-46 yaş aralığındaki genç erişkin popülasyonu bimodal şekilde etkilemektedir. Karakteristik klinik özellikleri arasında 39 °C’yi aşan ani günlük yüksek ateş, somon renginde geçici makülopapüler döküntü, boğaz ağrısı, miyalji ve özellikle el bileği ile dizleri etkileyen poliartralji yer alır. Ayrıca hepatosplenomegali, lenfadenopati ve serozit gibi multiviseral tutulumlar da seyir esnasında sıklıkla gözlenebilir. Laboratuvar paneli, nötrofilik lökositoz, artmış akut faz reaktanları (ESR, CRP) ve karaciğer enzimleri ile birlikte belirgin bir hiperferritinemi tablosunu yansıtır. Romatoid faktör ve antinükleer antikor testleri ise negatif sonuç vermektedir. Teşhise özel spesifik tek bir biyobelirteç bulunmadığından, tanı ancak enfeksiyon, malignite ve diğer romatolojik bozuklukların dışlanmasıyla, yaygın olarak Yamaguchi kriterleri kullanılarak konulabilmektedir. Klinik gidişat monosiklik, polisiklik veya kronik ilerleyici paternler sergileyebilir. Hastalık kontrol altına alınamadığında makrofaj aktivasyon sendromu, miyokardit, fulminan hepatit ve çoklu organ yetmezliği gibi hayati tehdit oluşturan ciddi komplikasyonlara yol açma riski taşımaktadır.
Adult-Onset Still's Disease (AOSD) is a rare multisystemic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology, primarily affecting young populations with a bimodal peak age between 15-25 and 36-46 years. Characterized by its low prevalence of less than 1/100,000, the disease presents major clinical manifestations including high spiking daily fevers exceeding 39 °C, transient salmon-colored maculopapular rashes, sore throat, myalgia, and polyarthralgia frequently affecting wrists and knees. Multiviseral involvement such as hepatosplenomegali, lymphadenopathy, and serositis is also commonly reported. Laboratory findings typically mirror non-specific systemic inflammation, demonstrating neutrophilic leukocytosis, markedly elevated acute-phase reactants (ESR, CRP), increased liver enzymes, and profound hyperferritinemia, while rheumatoid factor and antinuclear antibodies remain negative. Because no single biological marker is pathognomonic, AOSD is a diagnosis of exclusion requiring the elimination of infectious, malignant, and other autoimmune conditions, heavily relying on the Yamaguchi classification criteria for accurate identification. The clinical course is highly variable and unpredictable, categorized into monocyclic, polycyclic, or chronic progressive patterns. Furthermore, uncontrolled systemic inflammation can potentially trigger life-threatening complications, including macrophage activation syndrome, myocarditis, fulminant hepatitis, and multiple organ failure.
